What a fantastic time we had at the WPA bowling tournament and barbeque the first weekend of May. There was so much to do and see in the immediate area. The bowlers had a fantastic time on the lanes. The shoppers had much to choose from at the various shops in the outlet mall across the street. Those who wanted to try their luck at slots, games of chance or the horses had a lot of fun at Meadows Casino & Racetrack right next door. (I know one person who beat the slots on Saturday and left a winner.) But the highlight of the weekend was the barbeque. The food was ab­solutely delicious, and with so many wonderful things to choose from on the buffet, no one left hungry. It was a gourmet meal from the delicious shrimp appetizers, to the beef and chicken and ribs and hot sausage and lobster tails (yum!) and salads right down to the wonderful des­serts. It was a huge spread of amaz­ing foods. If you couldn't make it this time, you must "save the date" for next year's event. You don't want to miss it. We want to wish a happy birth­day and happy anniversary to those members with birthdays and anni­versaries this month. Also, we extend our heartfelt congratulations to Endre Csornán on receiving the Officer's Cross Order of Merit of the Republic of Hungary. He is absolutely deserving of this honor.
